  1. 1. Summary

    Korea’s state-led AI transition treats AI as public utility to be accessed by every citizen. So, Korean government plans to give guarantee access to locally made AI models to all citizens in similar fashion to water and electricity.

    2. How is this related to the sub

    (1) AI transition: Why less backlash against AI in East Asia? It is because of state-led nature of its transition. The fear of AI rises from unknown nature of U.S. AI companies. But, state-led transition gives the appearance of just another 5-year economic plans for the future.,

  2. it’s a pretty interesting idea but I feel like it would be a shitty public utility that doesn’t justify the state’s cost and upkeep of it while everyone interested in having an AI would subscribe to an actually useful one out of pocket. At least, that’s how it would play out in my country.
